proposed development will occur consistent with the environmental considerations identified in the General Plan. B. The design and improvements of the proposed subdivision are consistent with the General Plan, in that the subdivision includes a division of the property for residential development which is compatible with the General Plan and will promote the orderly development of subsequent phases. C. The site is physically suitable for residential development in that the developable area is flat terrain with less than three percent grade variation and is vacant. D. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development in that Phase 3 conforms with the density allowed in the Rezoning EIR and the General Development Plan which indicates that there are adequate services available to this development. E. The design of the subdivision or proposed improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat because implementation of the mitigation measures identified in the GDP Environmental Impact Report, the Supplemental Environmental Impact Reports for Phase 1 and for Phases 2 and 3, the conditions of approval for the Precise Development Plan for Phases 2A, 2B and 3, and the requirements imposed by other governmental agencies will ensure that the proposed development will occur consistent with the environmental considerations identified in the General Plan. F. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements is not likely to cause serious public health problems in that the environmental documents for the General Development Plan and the Precise Development Plan for Phase 3 include mitigation measures to bring any potential impacts to below a level of significance. Furthermore, following the preparation of the Preliminary Endangerment Assessment, some surface soils containing debris were removed from Phase 1, under the direction of the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC). DTSC required no further action in Phases 1 and 2. An Engineering Evaluation/Cost Analysis (EE/CA) to select a remediation alternative for shallow soils in Phase 3 was prepared by Harding Lawson Associates (HLA). The EE/CA was accepted by DTSC and the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB). A Well Closure and Soil Remediation Work Plan was also prepared by HLA and approved by DTSC and RWQCB. Most of the Work Plan activities were completed between August and October 1995. The remaining Work Plan activities are planned to be completed in the spring of 1996. All remediation measures will be completed prior to occupancy of any of the housing units in the Roberts Landing Residential Development. -2-
